The two girls also share a sip of moonshine from a beer bottle. Parents should also be aware that this game contains very strong language and some sexual themes that include Ellie looking at a porn magazine (the player sees nothing), coming under threat of sexual assault, and engaging in her first romance with a teen girl. The story is character- and relationship-driven, filled with tragedy, sacrifice, and horrific injuries designed to elicit strong emotions from players, who develop a bond with the heroes. Joel and Ellie use guns, knives, bats, homemade explosives, and other weapons to slay their attackers, often stealthily and typically with a good deal of blood, gore, and screaming. The action is bloody and terrifying, with scenes set in dark, dilapidated buildings and with enemies both human and infected attacking with brutal force. It follows Joel and Ellie, a grieving father and a 14-year-old girl, as they travel across an America ravaged by 20 years of an infectious disease that has wiped out much of the world and transformed many people into mindless monsters.

If it is licensing issues, then HBO would have removed the song in days rather than months.Īnother possible reason why HBO removed the song is due to the song potentially being used in the already-confirmed Season 2. However, it's quite odd that the studio re-edited the trailer to remove the song almost two months after it premiered on YouTube on December 4. It is unknown why HBO removed A-ha's "Take On Me" from The Last of Us trailer, but it might be due to licensing issues.
